What is live, what is being built, what is planned, and what we stopped. No launch dates, because we have missed enough of them to know better. Blockers instead, which are at least true.
How to read this
| Status | Means |
|---|---|
| Live | Shipped and you can use it today. |
| In build | Being worked on now. The blocker is named. |
| Planned | Committed to, not started. |
| Parked | Deliberately stopped. Not abandoned quietly. |
Live
- The marketplace. Houses, categories, product pages, one cart and one checkout across every house.
- Co-listing at a flat 6%, with the Shopify integration for stores that already exist.
- Accounts. Sign up, sign in, order history, password reset.
- PTD CLUB, six tiers across three billing cadences, with free shipping on every order at every tier.
- Vers Capital, the account and its three mandates, published with the model labelled as a model.
- Licensing, on a federally registered mark.
- These docs.
In build
| Thing | Blocked on |
|---|---|
| CLUB renewal billing | The recurring charge loop is not wired. First charges land, renewals do not fire. The top item on the list. See Billing. |
| Store credit issuance | Credit is owed by tier and settled by hand. Needs a hook on each successful billing attempt. See Perks. |
| Launch a store | Beta, and capacity-bound rather than code-bound. It is studio time. See Launch a store. |
| Affiliate tooling | Codes are issued and tracked. The self-serve dashboard and automated payouts are not built. See Affiliates. |
The phases
Phase 1 · the marketplace
Get a real marketplace up and get brands onto it. Co-listing at 6%, one checkout, houses that keep their own identity. This is the phase we are in, and the work left in it is operational rather than architectural.
Phase 2 · building for other people
Artist pages and store launches, ending in a handover so the page is self-hosted and controlled by whoever we built it for. Early applications are open now even though the service ships in this phase. See Artist and brand pages.
Phase 3 · the flip
The root domain becomes the platform and the original store moves under it. Mostly invisible to buyers, and entirely invisible if we do it well.
Phase 4 · fundraising and scale
The fundraising layer, plus search and discovery at a size the current browse cannot carry. See Fundraising.
Parked
- DIVA. The individual-seller path. Real, and not the priority while the brand paths are still being finished. It is off the sell surfaces rather than half-shipped.
- Multi-currency pricing. The marketplace prices and settles in USD.
- A native mobile app. No.
Not on the roadmap at all
- Listing fees, tipping prompts, or paid placement in browse.
- A subscription gate on seller features. Everything is available at the published rate.
- Exclusivity clauses. You keep your customers and your right to leave.
- Selling or renting the member list.
